Now I lay me down to sleep...

Well, I had high hopes for the McMenamin's that is in the next town over, great ambiance, history and a fun meeting place.

However, when we went and toured the facility we learned what they meant by shared bathrooms... 6 bathrooms that the occupants of their 27 rooms share. AND only 4 of those 6 bathrooms have a shower! Yeah, nothing says chaos like 20-50 wedding guests trying to get ready for a wedding sharing 4 showers.

I would still recommend the hotel for local guests looking for a place to crash after the party. Rooms are affordable and comfy - as long as you are laid back around the whole bathroom thing.

As for the out of towners, we are blocking rooms at the Holiday Inn Express and Best Western hotels in the area. Yes, it is slim pickin in these parts. But lets be honest, how much time are you going to spend hanging out in the hotel? Yeah, I didn't think so... did you read any of the outings posts (that I am ambitiously planning on writing) about all the great things to go and see and do in the area!

We are blocking rooms at both of these options. Please call the hotels to get one of the rooms on hold. I will add the group rates when I have the blocks in place...
